HC Deb 22 May 1968 vol 765 cc519-20
19. Mr. Alasdair Mackenzie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is satisfied that the present rate of progress with the building of the new Tain Royal Academy is sufficient to enable the Academy to be opened on the target date in 1969; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Millan

I understand that Ross and Cromarty Education Authority is satisfied with the rate of progress and sees no reason to change its forecast of the completion date.

Mr. Mackenzie

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that that Answer will give much satisfaction to my constituents in Tain? Will he accept the appreciation of my constituents and myself for the efforts of the local authority and the contractors concerned?

Mr. Millan indicated assent.
